fieldtrip response

The class fieldtrip to Slack Inc. was an enjoyable break from the norm.

It was interesting to learn about the different departments (graphics, sales, etc.) and how they work together to publish journals, tabloids, and brochures. I had no idea the editors would interact with tech guys. Although there are few subjects more boring to me than the human eye, the representatives from each department kept my interest with their brief presentations. The man from the graphic artists’ department gave a pretty humorous overview of his tasks despite expressing his distaste for public speaking.
Not so interesting was the tour of Slack’s facilities. It wasn’t the fault of our gracious tour guide—she just didn't have much to work with. It was really just a bunch of cubicles. They were nice cubicles—great texture, great color—but by minute two of the tour, I’d seen enough.

Thus far, I’d say Slack has been the second best fieldtrip.
